I would love to keep my Infernape in my Diamond Team but because it isn´t as good as it could be I´m going to replace it with a new Infernape. I also have Empoleon and Torterra that I use a lot but I´m going to replace them as well. XD In Pearl I end up starting with Piplup that has already evolved into Empoleon and I gotta say that it is worth keeping. : DD

Alec_ June 5th, 2009 6:14 AM

I always do have my Empoleon on my team. Because i think it's the strongest one. Because you raised it from its starter level up to high level. And it's becoming stronger and stronger than any pokemon of your team. ^^.

gblbf June 5th, 2009 8:10 AM

yes, infernape is always with me

Satoshi Ookami June 5th, 2009 11:17 AM

Well not anymore xD
I now have Lucario + legendary team so my Infernape must rest in PC

Kazukii June 5th, 2009 11:31 AM

No, my Infernape isn't currently in use

When it comes to traveling my Torterra is my friend. In fact I take him practically everywhere. After all he was my first and was responsible for helping me catch at least half the Pokemon I have now. Although we do to battle other people once in a while, my Torterra isn't as active in the competitive setting. Instead, I'll usually take Roserade or Abomisnow.

Fenrir Reki June 5th, 2009 12:08 PM

Yes I do, only because my starter pokemon owns and is one of my strongest.

a.new.bent June 5th, 2009 12:47 PM

I don't normally have my starter in my party just because I haven't trained him all that much since after the Pokemon League.

However, I do use him (infernape) in the battle hall and he does pretty well there
Moves: shadow claw, blast burn, thunder punch, and mach punch

Gulpin June 5th, 2009 4:29 PM

Yes, because if I wished to replace it then I would have to level up a replacement... :/ [is lazy.]

Sweet Visions June 5th, 2009 4:59 PM

I always kept mine, I will when I get Platinum tomorrow, I'm just some sort of sentimental freak when it comes to.. everything.

lolwut June 5th, 2009 5:45 PM

no not in platinum, but i did in diamond when i played through..

TeaTiMe June 14th, 2009 1:38 AM

Torn
 
I like my starter but to be honest I don't really keep him with me all the time mainly because it's a pain to carry a grass when I have a better grass pokemon and a super powered electric... but I used him in the league and I'll always use my starters for that :P

.Tactic. June 14th, 2009 2:43 AM

i still have my empoleon but i normally use my legendaries.

UraharaSteph June 14th, 2009 3:04 AM

nope
 
Can't say I do have my starter! In the older games I used to constantly have my starter pokémon, no matter what it was with me, but in all honesty, diamond pearl and platinum... I tend to replace my starter. Piplup got very quickly replaced with Vaporeon haha. Well actually I liked piplup, but when it ivovled I was like DX!

Zelda June 14th, 2009 6:26 AM

As I am getting a Battle Tower team ready, in Pokémon Pearl I do not have my starter pokémon with me. I would love to, but since some of my Battle Tower pokémon are strong enough to battle pokémon in the grass by themselves, I don't need it. Perhaps if I had my starter for the Battle Tower, I would be able to keep it with me, but since I chose not to it is in the PC. Though it will come back once I reach a certain amount of Battle Points at the Battle Tower.

JustinDestruction June 14th, 2009 8:00 AM

No. There are so many better Pokémon than the starters. I usually don't have any starters in my party, though occasionally I'll have a Charizard, Blaziken, or something. But none of the newer ones.

diamondpearl876 June 14th, 2009 8:12 AM

Yeah. I keep my starter in every single game. I'm pretty sentimental, so...

Silvergale June 14th, 2009 8:30 AM

I always keep Torterra in my party, even if I don't particularly use him a lot.

He's always there as a reinforcement and friend to the rest of my Pokemon

:)

Kumata June 14th, 2009 8:35 AM

I said no, but I sort of do... my starter on my most recent save was a Turtwig, and I have a Torterra, but it didn't evolve from it... I specifically bred a better Turtwig for use and traded it over from a friend's DS when I started again.

TEAM BLUE June 14th, 2009 8:57 AM

Nope.....I Replaced Piplup For Squirtle.....Just Left My Piplup In The Ranch.....

ace777 June 14th, 2009 9:06 AM

Nope, its in my PC because I already breed and EV trained a better one.

Bagel June 14th, 2009 9:14 AM

i kimda traded my inferape 4 my lv100 black charizard (it was ta best trade i ever made)

but the charizard is always wit me nomader wat

Johto's Best June 14th, 2009 9:48 PM

No, right when I beat the E4 I caught a Pichu. It's now a Lvl. 100 Raichu and I consider it my starter, but officially? No, I don't carry Empoleon with me anymore.

Lyra. June 15th, 2009 12:10 AM

Believe it or not, I still do. But the rest of my party changes not very often.

Zero° June 15th, 2009 12:31 AM

Leaf Green: all three xD
